Tour Description

The Grand Celebration with Black Canyon River Raft pairs a helicopter landing at the bottom of the Grand Canyon with a smooth water float trip down the Colorado River in Black Canyon. Guests will depart via a luxurious helicopter to Grand Canyon West. Our exclusive landing site is on a plateau near the river from which one can take spectacular photographs from the canyon floor. Guests will enjoy a light breakfast served at the bottom of the Grand Canyon before heading back to our terminal. Upon arriving at our terminal, they will be shuttled to the base of the Hoover Dam to take part in an 11-mile motorized raft trip down the Colorado River through Black Canyon. Lunch is provided on a private river beach with optional swimming. Return to Las Vegas via motorcoach.
